When You Need Help

I am bipolar. These pictures were taken hours apart. I was in the middle of a mixed episode. I was feeling the very high of mania and the very low of depression. I had hurt myself recently and had wanted to hurt myself again. I needed to be hospitalized. Fortunately, I knew I had a support team to reach out to. I knew I was in crisis and needed help.
